Running cargo install downloads sentry submodule

sirwart opened this issue · 4 comments

When trying to install ripsecrets via cargo I noticed that it now tries to download the entire sentry module because it's listed as a submodule, which takes a long time because it's a large repo. Either the configuration needs to change or removed as a submodule.

Oof. I didn't realize that was part of Cargo's behavior. rust-lang/cargo#4247 seems like a relevant discussion. dtolnay/syn#183, linked from the Cargo issue, looks like a potential way forward.

Yea, it seems like the only way forward is to not use submodules and just clone explicitly when needed, right?

That's what it sounds like based on rust-lang/cargo#4247. I'll take a stab at it…
